Some trends are well on the way to revolutionizing certain things in our world. But for every great one, there are a few that are ridiculous and annoying, simply begging you to ask the question, “Why?”

In this topic, food is no exception. From the things done in private kitchens to whole restaurant models, there are plenty of modern food-related trends that many can’t wait to disappear, so when one Redditor asked people to share theirs, they didn’t hold back. Check out what they said below!

Someone Online Asked “What Modern Food Trend Can You Not Wait To Die?” And 35 People Delivered If I'm on a website I'm only there to look at your menu. I'm not interested in starting an order before I've looked at the menu. No, I don't want to give you my zip code. Just give me your menu and some food pictures.

While these modern food trends have undeniably spread worldwide, if you’re looking for the whole experience, resort towns are the place to be. As Bored Panda found out by reaching out to u/Prestigious-Humor872, also known as Alex, this is precisely the kind of place he resides in.

Alex is a proud 28-year-old father from Michigan, USA. He works as an accountant and enjoys reading, sports, traveling, and spending time with his family. The OP is no food critic or restaurant expert, which is precisely why his opinion matters. After all, he’s a part of the target audience for all those places.

There's a reason for this! Recipes are not protected by copyright (under US law), but creative writing is; so people will attach stories to their recipes so that they are considered a piece of creative writing, and thus will be protected by copyright laws.

And also because certain key words will get your page to the top of Google’s search results. My husband writes product texts - he has to get creative to force some of those words in there for the same reason 😅

This complaint is so old and whiny and wrong that it's actually been banned on the reddit cooking sub. Everyone thinks it's an original complaint, and that they're being funny; "I don't care about your great-aunt Gertie's apple orchard". Har har har. Maybe instead of whining about how tired your poor finger gets scrolling through someone's free website and the content they worked really hard to produce, you could visit one of the literally thousands of recipe sites that aren't blogs or - and hear me out here - buy a cookbook. I don't look at art and complain that it should just be a list of the colors they used.

I looked at an online recipe that looked really good, but I refused to save it. The top and bottom of the site were filled with so many ads that all I could read was about a 2 1/2" strip in the middle of the monitor. In addition, there was the usual junk about how the recipe made the author feel, a video showing how it was made, and even instructions on how to cook it even though they hadn't listed any ingredients yet. I decided I wasn't going to scroll through all that every time I wanted to cook this dish.

These 'stories' are actually there for a reason. A recipe can't be copyrighted by itself. They are not considered "original works of authorship". So only by including those stories can people prevent big companies from copying their recipe and selling it as part of a book, which would Also give that big company copyright of their recipe.

To answer your statements. 1) Even if articles like this haven't been a thing in nearly a decade, which is debatable to begin with, it is still something people still have to deal with today. 2) There is always the possibility that when people do this with an online recipe, they get a portion of ad revenue either by clicks, or by time spent scrolling on the article. If ever you see ads or pop-ups, then the page is monetized, and the creator is getting paid. And assuming it's done by time spent on the page, having needless fluff at the beginning pointlessly increases the time you spend on the article.

And if that tip is necessary for the employees to make a living, the restaurant just needs to pay their employees a higher wage and charge whatever they need to charge for the food in order to do so. But I’m tired of being asked to tip for every single thing.

OP’s town, contradictory to what’s usual for its size, has an extensive food scene. He says that over the past few years, he has noticed way too many recurring themes, with new restaurants opening up around every corner and old ones making changes to catch up.

The curiosity about whether things look the same in other parts of the world inspired Alex to start this Reddit thread. The post exploded with nearly 8,000 upvotes and over 9,000 comments, which shows that he’s definitely not in the minority regarding opinion about these movements. “I was very surprised,” the author said. “I never thought I would capture the internet’s attention like this.”

I recall as long ago as the 1970s that 'pub food' in the UK was usually served in a basket. It was a thing, differentiated pub food from restaurants, usually much more basic. The 'basket' was always lined with greaseproof paper, so did not need washing up like proper plates, so I always assumed this was just to cut down on the need for kitchen space and costs.

When asked what is the modern food trend that he himself can’t wait to end, the OP had a clear answer: “‘Gastropub’ trend and their tendency to market their foods as ‘artisan’ or ‘craft’ with an ‘abandoned warehouse’ themed interior.” He said that while this doesn’t necessarily mean that the food there is bad, his restaurant experiences tend to be less and less memorable with each night out, and the overused buzzwords on the menu just top it all off.

To add a little extra to the answer, Alex told us that he’s also getting tired of the popularity of Brussels sprouts, but as he said himself, “That may be because my wife loves them, and I eat them every time I’m out.”

We were also curious about where exactly these movements come from, so we did some more digging. According to BlueCart, many factors influence the food trends, but a couple that stand out the most are health fads and pop culture.

The article explains that in fine dining, it is usually chefs who create these trends that are later mimicked by other restauranteurs. However, sometimes, there are also certain food consultants who help the restaurants develop these new items for their menus.

Escoffier further tells us that it’s not always the taste that is the determining factor in creating these food trends. Sometimes, it is more focused on what people see and hear around them. For example, cupcakes were brought back and became one of the main things that come to people’s minds when they think of American culture, all because they were widely featured on the TV show “Sex in the City.”

The article also mentions that many other variables are at play, ranging from money and marketing to something known as food politics. According to them, there is even one person at Whole Foods, the Head Global Cheese and Specialty Product Buyer, who can change entire markets, all based on her preferences that day.

Marleygem , Fatima Akram Report

So, in the end, while modern food trends aim to please an average consumer, the target group rarely has a say in the invention process. It is unusual to see any kind of survey of what you’d prefer to find on the menu or what the place you eat at should look like. Instead, the restaurants assume what they think the general public will like and mimic it to avoid getting left behind. But thankfully, you don’t need to be an expert to have your opinion heard online.

I just had dinner with my grandson, who ordered the Cajun style steamed crab dish. He was served a rimmed cookie sheet and a huge clear bag of seafood boil including vegetables, with a pair of scissors. The gimmick is to cut the bag from the bottom and slosh the whole mess into the pan, then dig in. It was a disgusting mess (to me) but he had a blast eating it. The table was a disaster.

I used to like Fritos and Doritos, back before anyone messed with them and they were just in their original form, made with their original ingredients. They were a highlight of my school lunch. But, even as a kid, I could NEVER eat spicy hot food, as my stomach would severely punish me for it. So, to all the “creatives” at all the longstanding traditional snack foods companies, let me say this, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” Leave well enough alone, or at least leave the original untouched, so there’s something for the rest of us to eat. I’m 62, btw.
